Welcome to KateCooch.com

Welcome to katecooch.com, the official site of history writer and mystery novelist Kate Cooch. Please check out at my book The Happy Housewife. It’s a mystery novel about a suburbanite mom who solves a series of murders in her home town while coming to terms with a deadly miscalculation she made as a Coast Guard helicopter pilot.

For quicker reading, download some of my history shorts (they’re free!). I began my writing career as a history author and have articles on the site about an 1826 duel, a Civil War spy, and a conspiracy to topple the founding fathers after the revolutionary war.

The History of… is my blog about the history behind current events. I’d love to get your take on how the history of affects what’s happening today.

There is also my bio and a contact page. If you give me your email I’ll let you know about upcoming events and new writing. Thanks for stopping by!
